Kevin Totel from jkOnTheRun had this item up today, Too bad he didn’t have it last week, it would have saved him some pain!

Yup, if I had a Replug last week, I wouldn’t have had to buy new earphones for my iPhone this week. Replug is an innovative 3.5mm jack that can save your ‘phones and your device. The jack magnetically attaches so it can break away if your cord gets caught on a car as you walk by. Well, that’s what I did anyway; they should work in many more situations too. After a break-away situation, you simply re-attach the two parts via the magnet and you’re listening to tunes again, not staring at frayed copper like I was.

Replug says we’ll see the product this fall, but they haven’t announced a price yet. Has to be cheaper than a new set of ear-cans though. Oh and thanks for the recommendations for my replacement earphones, BTW; I went with Shure SE210s for now. Lucky I had that cheap but useful iPhone earphone adapter we mentioned. It arrived in the mail the day I bought the Shures.
